Created by: CuyahogaKid

Team: 2022-23 Buffalo Sabres

Initial Creation Date: Feb. 12, 2023

Published: Feb. 12, 2023

Salary Cap Mode: Basic

Trades

BUF

Additional Details:

A veteran mentor for the locker room who brings experience. He may likely push a young guy out of the lineup, but it’s only temporary. The team will need experience if they want to push for a playoff spot.

Seeler gives them an ideal depth defenseman who brings grit, roughness and plays the game hard.

PHI

Asplund, Rasmus
2023 2nd round pick (VGK)
2023 6th round pick (BUF)

Additional Details:

More or less does Asplund a favor. Gives him a chance to play every night again in the NHL and his defensive style is a fit for John Tortorella

BUF

2023 6th round pick (STL)

STL

Portillo, Erik [Reserve List]

Buyouts

Cody Hodgson: $791,667
Christian Ehrhoff: $0

In exactly what way is getting JVR instead of Meier able to be called “ideal” ?

Poor word choice there sir

This is true "his defensive style is a fit for John Tortorella."
Not sure if JVR style would match Granato's style of play.
Could Asplund for Seeler work as well.
The Flyers get 4.5 years younger and the Sabres get a another LHD.

@RasmusASSplund of course you would need to change your name LOL!

The one where we dont give up our future to go for it before we are ready. I'd honestly say we'd be better off being sellers at this point.

When would they be ready? It's been 11 years since they made the playoffs, which is absolutely ridiculous! They can't keep being sellers every year, and this team is close right now. The Sabres are one of the highest scoring teams in the league. Also, Timo Meier would be part of the future, he's only a year older than Tage. If the package to get Meier, who is a proven player, would be Rosen or Ostlund, Mitts and a 1st, I would rather have Timo.

Paying a 2nd for a rental is “stupid”
NOT “ideal”
